“Israel’s military launched its first ground incursions in months into parts of southern Lebanon, saying on Wednesday that they were ‘targeted operations’ to dismantle military infrastructure belonging to the militant group Hezbollah. … Under the terms of the truce, Israel was expected to withdraw from southern Lebanon, which it had invaded during the war. But it has held onto five positions along the border, accusing Hezbollah of violating the agreement by maintaining an armed presence in the area.
Israel has also conducted near-daily strikes against what it says are Hezbollah targets, intensifying those attacks in recent weeks. … The Israeli military statement on Wednesday said it had located and destroyed weapons depots and firing positions, releasing footage showing soldiers conducting nighttime operations inside Lebanese territory.” (07/09/25)
